Document Title Proposal for a supplement to the 06 Series of amendments to Regulation No. 48
Reference Number GRE-70-09
Date
26 Sep 2013
Summary Proposal to introduce the following into Regulation No. 48: a) General definition of ‘tell-tale’, as also currently defined in Regulation No. 121; b) Requirement that the specifications of the tell-tale (location, identification, symbol, illumination and colour) shall meet the relevant requirements of Regulation No. 121; c) Provision that tell-tales shall always provide an optical signal, thus aligning with Regulation No. 121; however, it is suggested to allow additional signals (auditory or any equivalent signal); d) New definition of a ‘failure tell-tale’ and stating the mandatory presence of such tell-tale for the daytime running lamp in certain cases; e) Editorial changes clarifying the situation for a few other cases in Regulation No. 48, where apparently also a ‘failure tell-tale’ was meant.

11. The expert from the Netherlands introduced GRE-70-09, GRE-70-10 and GRE-70-11 superseding ECE/TRANS/WP.29/GRE/2013/2 on tell-tales associated with operation of lighting and light signalling devices. The proposal received some comments (GRE-70-36). GRE supported the proposal and agreed to revisit this subject at its next session on the basis of a revised document, which the expert from the Netherlands volunteered to prepare.
